I'm a software engineer living in Turkey, focusing mainly on engineering for the web and open source. I'm a big fan of continuous learning. I love solving algorithmic puzzles, writing open source code and contributing to projects on GitHub.

I graduated with the highest GPA (3.94) amongst 2016 graduates (~7000 students) at Mugla University, awarded with the High Honor Student Certificate.

This internship was part of Google Summer of Code 2016 program. I developed a graphical user interface for Jekyll. I worked side by side with mentors from Github.
The project is divided into two parts, a Ruby-based HTTP API that handles Jekyll and filesystem operations, and a front end built with React.js.

Projects

A Jekyll plugin that provides users with a traditional CMS-style graphical interface to author content and administer
Jekyll sites. The project is divided into two parts. A Ruby-based HTTP API that handles Jekyll and filesystem
operations, and a front end built with React & Redux, built on that API.
